Best Location in Town
Business Description
Discover an exceptional opportunity to take over a beautifully renovated, turnkey Italian restaurant in a prime location steps from Yale University. This impressive 3,200?square?foot space features 90 warm and inviting dining seats, a lively 20?seat bar, and one of the area’s most sought?after patios with room for 60 guests. The lease is remarkably attractive at just $9,300 per month, inclusive of trash removal, property taxes, and insurance. A recent top?to?bottom renovation—valued at $1,000,000—has left the restaurant in outstanding condition, ready for a seamless transition. Open seven days a week for lunch and dinner, this establishment is already a strong performer with significant room for further growth. Its proximity to Yale ensures a steady flow of students, faculty, theatergoers, and visitors. Currently operated absentee, the owner spends $170,000 annually on management—income you can capture by running the business yourself. This is the go?to dining destination for the Yale community, and now it can be yours. Opportunities like this don’t come around often.
